History and Original Purpose

The American Kennel Club first recognized the Poodle as a breed in 1887. The Standard Poodle is thought to have originated from Germany as a breed of water retriever. The word Poodle probably comes from the German word Pudel.



Some argue that the poodle is a descendent of the French Barbet dog. What we do know is that this is an old breed, with a history stretching back to the 15th century at least.
